Event Details

Join us for the eighth edition of Green Film Fest, September 6 – 14 at the historic Castro Theatre, YBCA, and Cowell Theater at Fort Mason Center. We’ll be bringing you urgent new stories from the environmental front-lines – from the wildfires of California to vanishing islands in the Pacific, from the melting Arctic tundra to a receding Amazon. Yet these are also stories of inspiration and hope, of people who are rising up to protect their land, their forests, water, air, and fight for their environmental justice.

We are bringing audiences a week of over 50 new films and more than 100 guest speakers, discussions, and special events that spark green ideas and connections.

With the planet heating up, environmental protections at risk, and political forces in flux, there has never been a more crucial moment to come together and share stories and ideas for action.

Venues: Venues across San Francisco including Opening & Closing Nights at the Castro Theatre, with additional screenings at Cowell Theater at Fort Mason Center, YBCA, Koret Auditorium at SF Public Library-Main Branch.

Tickets: $15 per screening ($13 Members) or $25 for a full pass to the Festival’s week of films, panels, and social events. All screenings are free to anyone aged 18-and-under or with current student I.D. The full program will be announced and tickets on sale on August 1.

Launched in 2011, the San Francisco Green Film Festival is a non-profit organization dedicated to screening compelling environmental films; connecting audiences to filmmakers and experts; and sparking green ideas & actions. Our signature program is the annual Green Film Fest and we also screen films and support filmmakers throughout the year.
